2015 Wrap-up and 2016 Plans

Below are some of my favorite pieces that I made last year.

These are the items I find myself wearing most often and what I’m most satisfied with. 2015 was quite a journey. I did the RTW (ready-to-wear) fast again for the second year in a row! I’m definitely not doing it again, although I still haven’t bought any clothing. For 2016 there is the ongoing goal to continue to challenge myself and grow. As far as particular items I want to make this year or particular goals:

an LDB is certainly on the list,

buy fewer patterns and use the ones I have (especially the ones I bought and never tried)

continue to sew through my fabric stash, although I’ve noticed I have a LOT of prints and not many solids, so I will keep this in mind when purchasing

I also want to keep track of yardage sewn this year. I’ve never done this before, but I think it’ll be an interesting tidbit to note at the end of the year

So, what are some of your sewing goals? Do you set goals or just wing-it and make whatever you feel like making? Honestly, I do both. Next time I’ll show you what I’m currently working on… Until then, Happy New Year! And happy sewing!
